Using of experimental apparatus Mini Traction Machine for study of frictional properties of lubricated and unlubricated contacts

This bachelor thesis focuses on description of Mini-Traction Machine test rig. After the theoretical introduction to Tribology is first generally described the principle of measuring on the Mini-Traction Machine and then are described the individual accessories. Consequently the results of main experiments where Mini-Traction Machine test rig was used from all over the world are summarized. Individual experiments show the possibilities of applying Mini-Traction Machine when measuring the material tribological characteristics
